Future SF Classics Written by Women

Over at Torque Control, Niall Harrison has compiled the list of authors nominated in his polls and you can read it here. Niall’s effort to bring some attention to some of this great work is much appreciated and applauded. Support him and us by going to his site and perusing the list. Or even better … making note of and reading some of them.

This poll comes at a time when I’m writing an introduction for Twelfth Planet Press’s new Twelve Planets series which will showcase more talented Australian women writing in the field of SF. I couldn’t be happier than to be doing this particular task, and hope that the next time Niall Harrison (or anyone else) conducts such a discussion that many of the Twelve Planet authors will be mentioned in it. If they are, then we will have done our job!
